At Edinburgh College of Art we encourage students to express their personal identities, supporting them in becoming originators and innovators in their field. We also uphold excellence in ‘fashion traditions’, including drawing, illustration, pattern cutting and making skills, whilst embracing digital and technical futures. This space, a link between past and futures, provides a rich, reflective, and dynamic learning environment. We ask our students to design with inclusive, respectful, and celebratory approaches to all humankind, and to be considerate to environmental impact by generating more sustainable design solutions. Our ambition is that the future of fashion lies with informed designer activists, who use empathy and care as core tools for research, design and fashion outcomes.
